- Vegetables (as needed)
- Broth

Notes
- Can I use instant rice? While regular long-grain rice provides the best texture, you can use instant rice by adjusting the cooking time to about 10 minutes and reducing the liquid by approximately ¼ cup.
- How to make it spicier: For additional heat, use hot Italian sausage, increase the red pepper flakes, or add a diced jalapeño with the other vegetables.
- Gluten-free option: Yes, as long as you ensure your sausage and broth are certified gluten-free, this recipe contains no gluten ingredients.
- Instant Pot method: Use the sauté function for the first steps, then cook on high pressure for 5 minutes with a 10-minute natural release.
- Reheating leftovers: For best results, reheat in a covered skillet with a tablespoon of water or broth over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until warmed through.
